SkyTrac will provide STAT MedEvac with hardware to equip its fleet of EC 135 and EC 145 helicopters, as well as provide ground station software and web based flight following and fleet management tools. By using SkyTrac’s system, STAT MedEvac will improve the efficiency and reliability of communication with ground emergency medical services (EMS) and fire departments. STAT MedEvac believes that flight following is a critical component to aviation safety and quick emergency response. When a STAT MedEvac aircraft equipped with SkyTrac’s flight following and SATCOM system has a patient on board, medical flight personnel are able to reliably communicate with a medical command physician to provide critical details of the patient’s condition. By using SkyTrac’s mapping tools to follow the flight, STAT MedEvac can provide hospitals and ground emergency medical services with an accurate ETA of the helicopter.
